When I had my first child, a friend gave us a some advice: "Learn to cut your kid's hair yourself." It seemed an impossible task at the time, but seven years and countless Costco clipper sets later, Hubs has become quite the barber. Best of all, we've saved ourselves from dishing out quite a bit of moolah.

It's been one of the best pieces of parenting advice I've ever received.

Today was GG's first hair buzz cut.

Watching his brothers go first made his foray somewhat tolerable, though watching his face you'd think otherwise. He was not very happy.

But for his sake it was quick – the whole process was caught on the Flip in under two short minutes.

All those hours of practice and uneven haircuts has literally paid off.
